(Sorry, I'm really not the best at tabbing finger picking pieces. Sometimes, it seems like my hands can
 understand the rhythm better than my head can -- I'm certainly trying to be helpful, keep that in mind!)

     Em        Am          C        Em
like the memory from your mother's house from before you got too old
     Em        Am          C        Em
like the feeling from a photograph before it's meanings all got told
   D         Am         G        Am
the words I say can be silver, but what's left unsaid can be gold
  Bm7/A     Am    Em
so get to know me once I go away

Em       Am        C       Em
maybe 'cause I come from such an empty-hearted town
  Em       Am        C       Em
or maybe 'cause some love of mine had really let me down
     D       Am       G     Am
but the only time I am lonely is when others are around
    Bm7/A    Am       Em
I just never end up knowing what to say

Chorus:
   C                 G
if I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid
   D                  Am         Em
if I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid
   C                     G
if I wanted someone to understand me, I'd have so much more to say
    D            C
I want you to make the days move easy

REPEAT INTRO:


    Em      Am          C      Em
I took everything I thought from what it means to be a man
    Em     Am       C      Em
we need words to be put to what we do not understand
     D       Am       G      Am
while you lean into the echoes and you do not raise a hand
  Bm7\A     Am       Em
oh woman, help me see it like it is


VERSE CHORDS PLAYED TWICE:


Chorus:
   C                 G
if I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid
   D                  Am         Em
if I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid
   C                     G
if I wanted someone to understand me, I'd have so much more to say
    D            C
I want you to make the days move easy

   C                 G
if I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid
   D                  Am          Em
if I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid
   C                    G
if I wanted someone to cut me down, I'd have handed you the blade
    D             C
I want you to make the days move easy
      D             C
I just want you to make the days move easy


REPEAT INTRO:
